I’m in a constant search, one of those searches that make you full with humanity, that fills you up after every heartbeat, that makes you feel anxious to explore; I find myself hugging the amusement, the one to find, the one that invites me to walk.

In point of fact, I have found myself always walking and I don't want to stop.

I’m Santiago

And for the last couple of years I’ve been being an enemy of the definitions, for some time I’ve been feeling that every time I define something, I limit it, and also I do not give it space for creativity, to be, to feel free or simply, to exist ; for that reason, it’s difficult for me to tell you about who I am without limiting the infinity of possibilities that I could also be, but I will try, at least by telling you that I like it.

I’m a 29 year old Colombian living in Australia since 2019, journalist, social communicator, photographer and a current student of Master Degree of Screen Media Production; addicted to coffee, movies and the company of my wife, also a Colombian who has accompanied me in this travel to the other side of the world.

I had a wonderful opportunity to be a volunteer and photographer for almost two years with a worldwide foundation and there I found that behind every look, every smile and every human, there are thousands of stories to tell, that in Haiti children cry the same way as those in Spain and that love when hugging a good friend or missing your loved ones feels the same in Argentina or Italy. and that is what I do when taking my pictures, try to feel what the person next to me is really feeling.

One of my goals when taking pictures is to never forget who is behind my camera lens, and even if it sounds cliché, I’ll look at people instead of clients, eyes and smiles instead of materials and unforgettable moments and memories before anything else that way, I’ll give you not just a photograph, but a memory to relive over and over again forever.

If this sounds good to you, I invite you to start to create memories and moments to never forget.
